Comments
•
Continuous Scanning Operation: Continuous scanning is enabled
with the INITiate:CONTinuous ON or INITiate:CONTinuous 1
command. Sending the INITiate[:IMMediate] command closes the
first channel in the channel list. Each trigger from a trigger source
selected by the TRIGger:SOURce command advances the scan
through the channel list. A trigger at the end of the channel list closes
the first channel in the channel list and the scan cycle repeats.
•
Non-Continuous Scanning Operation: Non-continuous scanning is
enabled with the INITiate:CONTinuous OFF or
INITiate:CONTinuous O command. Sending the
INITiate[:IMMediate] command closes the first channel in the
channel list. Each trigger from a trigger source selected by the
TRIGger:SOURce command advances the scan through the channel
list. At the end of the scanning cycle, the last channel in the channel
list is closed.
•
Stopping Continuous Scan: See the ABORt command.

Example
Enabling Continuous Scanning:
This example enables continuous scanning of channels 00 through 03 of a
single-module switchbox. Since TRIGger:SOURce IMMediate (default) is
set, use an interface clear command (such as CLEAR) to stop the scan.
INIT:CONT ON
